Particularly since my most recent trip to the Oregon coast.  It’s been a powerful reminder of the glorious gift… our Earth. It is so strange to think that Earth Day became “official” when I was still in high school♡ Yikes, is that really possible? However, it wasn’t until my first year in college, that my Biology instructor introduced me to a wonderful story… that was written by no one other, than the fun, and WhImSiCal, Dr. Seuss.

It chronicles the plight of the environment, and is told by the remorseful Once-ler…. to a young boy curious as to why the world is the way it is. ♡ … Continue reading →

Perhaps what I was really going to post about today, was my affinity for different gardens around the Cottage. And, I think I was going to take you for a little walk,  to share my gentle, sweet, touches of a country garden. And, perhaps share with you how  I am really charmed by the country look. For me there is nothing quite as lovely as the look of quilts hanging on a line, with perhaps a … Continue reading →

Hello, Welcome to Marcia’s Cottage. ♡ I’m so happy to see you today my friend. ♡ Shall we have a little tea. ♡  Happy Friday! How was your week? I’m hoping you had a wonderful one.                             My week was busy, busy, busy.                    I had our upstairs windows cleaned.     Finished painting our deck, and polishing floors to a sparkle.  All these things were done to prepare for an Open House. Oh, and I met my dear friend for dinner. She’s a friend from when I was in high school a few years ago. (Ha! Ha! to the few years ago) Anyway, we try and meet for dinner once a month. With all the work I had been doing around here, an evening out was a great getaway. … Continue reading →
